The film is known for its violence, provocative gender roles, and eminently quotable "dialogue to shame Raymond Chandler".[4] It is also remembered for the performance of star Tura Satana, whose character Richard Corliss called "the most honest, maybe the one honest, portrayal in the Meyer canon".[5] Faster, Pussycat! was a commercial and critical failure upon its initial release, but it has since become widely regarded as an important and influential film.[6][7][8]
